Product Description
Manufacturer's Description
Monopoly Here and Now:The World Edition is an exciting, contemporary update to the classic board game. Featuring the same mix of strategy and chance that has made the original Monopoly an international bestseller, this version features cities from around the world, renewable energy utilities, and electronic banking.
Here and Now:The World Edition of Monopoly features cities from around across the globe, including New York, London, Shanghai, and Istanbul. Before the game was produced, millions of people from all over the world voted on which cities should be included. Each property space is completed with a colourful photograph, which makes the board itself a unique centrepiece and conversation starter. Traditional utilities and railroads have been replaced with modern transportation options and renewable energy sources, such as wind and solar power.
Six movers are chosen at random from the 24 available pieces for inclusion in each game. You might find a windmill, a soccer ball, or a kangaroo in your set. Similarly, the houses and hotels have been updated to reflect international structures. Another nice touch is the community chest and chance cards featuring quick "Did you know?" facts. These let you learn about Rio Carnival, Munich's traditional Christmas market, the earliest British "passport," and more while you play.
Perhaps the biggest addition to this version is electronic money management. The banker unit offers two slots - one for paying money and one for receiving money.
All these features ensure that this edition will be a big a hit with new and veteran Monopoly players alike, making it a great pick for game night.
The world's number one game has gone global. This world-class MONOPOLY game board has you traveling to cities across the globe you'll cross six continents before you pass GO.

This is a great toy. We have only played it twice but we had a great time. It is a little over priced but the credit card helps the game along a lot quicker than the origional version. The credit card makes it easier to pack away also which helps as th ere isn't lots of money floating around.
Very good buy, would recomend especially if you enjoyed the origional version.

This is great fun, it uses a credit card for all purchases and payments. No more messing about with paper play money. Only drawback is: another toy in the house that needs batteries.
It is a great update on an old favorite.
